[Linux] Cannot build poetry without depending on poetry

[ghost]

I wanted to start building a releasable .deb or AppImage of poetry, but I cannot seem to find a (documented) way of building poetry without installing poetry first.

./Makefile pull a docker image with multiple python versions and runs ./make-linux-release.sh but that installs poetry itself in order to package poetry.

How can poetry be built without depending on poetry?

The recommended installation for Poetry today is either using https://install.python-poetry.org or using pipx install poetry. You can likely follow the instructions at https://python-appimage.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ to build an app image with Poetry installed.

For debs you can see https://packages.debian.org/sid/python3-poetry.
